Which genders could I see myself dating, if any? Am I attracted to one specific gender, or multiple genders? Am I attracted to people romantically, sexually, or in another way? Do I care about my partner’s gender; do I have a preference?

If you identify as asexual, for example, you might have sex to please your partner, or not want to have sex at all. Visit websites dedicated to it, and read about the experiences of people of that sexuality. This will help you get a feel for whether you relate to it or not. Orientation is determined on what feels right to you.

There are dating sites for people exploring their orientation, such as OkCupid or Grindr.
